I hold bachelor’s degree in European History and Economics from Bennington College in Vermont and received my Master’s degree in Business Administration while continuing my almost 30 year career at the University of Florida as an administrative systems coordinator. I have two boys, Richard and Tony, ages 39 and 41.

When my second husband passed away in 2018, I retired from UF and moved to Key West. in 2025 I have moved to Sarasota to help my brother and sister-in-law care for my 92 year old parents (with all of us living together under one roof!) I am an active member of Bayside Community Church in Lakewood Ranch.   I continue to work remotely for Grace Lutheran School assisting Amy Donaldson and the rest of the staff as needed.

My passion is to join God wherever I see Him at work as His servant, and that places me right here at Grace Lutheran School, as a ladies small group leader at Bayside Church, and in my family home.
